The Rubens is the debut studio album by Australian alternative rock group, The Rubens. The album was released on 14 September 2012 and reached number 3 on the Australian Albums Chart.
A deluxe edition was released on 26 April 2013, featuring 8 additional tracks, 7 of which are live tracks recorded live at The Forum in Melbourne on September 15, 2012.
The album was nominated for ARIA Award for Breakthrough Artist - Release and ARIA Award for Best Rock Album at the ARIA Music Awards of 2013. It was also nominated for Best Album at the 2012 J Award.
Matt Collar of All Music gave the album 4 out of 5, saying; “Australian rock outfit the Rubens' 2012 self-titled debut showcases the band's dark, melodic soulful pop. The album finds the band splitting the difference between a Baroque, piano-driven '60s pop approach and a contemporary, bass-heavy garage rock sound. Think Britain's Ed Harcourt meets the Black Keys.”
The Rubens debuted and peaked at #3 in Australia.
